Further research and data entry has been undertaken by Steve Cafferty and Charlie Jarvis, who have also provided much of the introductory material as well as acting in an advisory capacity for the Project as a whole.

Anne Hume designed and developed the search pages for the database, and Rob Huxley has acted as overall Project Manager.
